Cheer fundraisers: costs they cover
Oftentimes, cheerleading team costs can be high. There are many costs to cover and a successful fundraising campaign can help lessen the burden of those costs. Some of the most common cheerleading team expenses include:
Travel costs: Whether the team travels across the country for a show or just across the state for a game or performance, your team will incur travel expenses. The team should be able to afford gas, plane or bus fare, and lodging.
Uniform costs: You can’t have successful high school cheerleading fundraisers without raising funds to purchase great uniforms. Cheerleaders need new uniforms every season, including sneakers, training gear, and accessories.
Coaching costs: A cheerleading squad has to learn from the best to stay on top of their game. Head coaches, tumbling coaches, and choreographers can help lift the entire team to a new level.
Camp fees: Every serious cheerleading squad needs a cheer camp. This is where they practice their routines, improve skills, and bond as a team. However, camps generally aren’t free to attend.
Entrance fees: Cheerleading squads pay a lot of entrance and competition fees to participate in local, regional, and often even worldwide events and competitions.
